"Kaneki.. Kaneki! Morning..!"
The blond ghoul had been recruited to Anteiku like any other, his reward
being the filling of his stomach of course, which had been recently taken
care of thus his good mood. Although Naruto was often in a good mood,
taking enjoyment in working and finding his slip ups to be rather hilarious.
Never were they intentional, it just seemed to happen with no explanation
as to why. Like, for example how he often severed coffee in a hidden stash
of plant pots that people had yet to find. They tried to follow him, watched
his every movements and still he would appear with a new one, the colour
and pattern always changing thus leading to believe there was multiple
rather then simply one.
”You’re so late ‘ttebayo. I’ve been waiting for ya!”
He called out, placing yet another of his plant pot specials down on the
customers table and not hanging around long enough to hear their
protest or disgust. His tray clattered against the counter as he neared
it, deciding now was a good time for a break considering he’d been
working since the early morning, the first in actually which surprised
Touka to see his smiling face so early.
“Ya gonna eat with me today? I saved some so we could..! And ya
know how hard it is for me to stop once I start dattebayo.”
He spoke with little awareness of the customers, not even checking
for human presence since Kaneki’s stench often distracted him
completely. Another of his flaws was his inability to hide his eyes.
They practically glowed as they stared at the raven, black, red and
sinister looking. It didn’t match the grin on his lips.
“C’mon, c’mon! You know ya want to!”
heart beat like a human's; a pulse that hummed beneath worn
ribs with an anxious spasm to its movement -- it was never kaneki's
forte to immediately spring upon what he had to do, and so, for that
very moment in the reality of anteiku, he stood. it wasn't lax, it
couldn't be, judging by the quiver that ran down to his spine, tailbone
twitching as if a nerve had been struck. and it wasn't until the boy had
raised his voice when the more feeble had begun to take action; digits
flexed and swung over the counter to grasp the taller's lip, a cover for
any persons nearby -- it hadn't been the move that would draw the least
attention, but at least the other waiter hadn't gone and caused trouble.
the egging on from whisked blond locks had reached its end, the
murmurs no longer felt inside his porcelain palm, skin glowing under the
florescence of the room. with bystanders' eyes diverted and attention
fading, his own extremities were withheld, hands snaking back to his own
sides yet again.
❛ you have
to be more careful! creating all this noise isn't
going to benefit anyone. plus, you have to...
control yourself. ❜
vision darted to opposing eyes for emphasis, a comical twitch of the
brow warping onto his own features. with naruto being the newest recruit,
there was a lot for him to understand about anteiku and its workers -- he
shouldn't speak too much, as he was the greenhorn before this -- but he
wasn't this...blunt.
❛ yes, we'll
go eat today. touka-chan is going to take over for
our lunch break, i think? ❜
a question slipped from pursed lips as fingers splayed over the last dirty cup,
ready to be placed to dry; touka had offered for him, so he figured it would
be alright if they were to leave as of now.
